Birth of AOA Mumbai
AOA Mumbai came into existence in January 2013. It is the first city branch
of the National body AOA India which started in 2007.
Dr I J Dagli is considered as the father of Modern Obstetric Analgesia
practice, having pioneered Labour Analgesia services in the city of Mumbai
since 1961. A great teacher, he is known for his dedicated work and immense
knowledge. Being an inspiration to many, he served as a mentor in initiating
and developing this subspeciality of Obstetric Anaesthesia in Mumbai.
Thereby the Mumbai AOA Society has decided to dedicate their annual CME to
Dr Dagli - Dr Dagli Memorial Obstetric Anaesthesia CME.
